Based on your question, I have to assume your XML is being generated by a Win 1252 app using the 1252, or Windows ANSI, code page as its encoding. So you need to find a utility for converting the char references that are mapped to I guess what you could call Unicode unknowns, since in Unicode they're mapping to what are essentially private or unused code points. This means that if you are using, for example, ’ , unless you do your transform using an output encoding of Windows-1252, the UTF-8 mapping of ’ will not be what you bargained for. ’ maps out to the right single quote mark in Win 1252, i acute in MacRoman, and, for our purpsoses here, nothing in Unicode (actually, it's a "private use" control character). I have to think MS has a conversion utility for fixing the source doc. Try looking beginning here, and drill down. I bet you'll find something: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/intl/unicod e_0a5v.asp Failing that, you can look at this conversion table and try your own thing: http://www.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/VENDORS/MICSFT/WINDOWS/CP1252.TXT Cheers, Charles White The Tumeric Partnership http://www.tumeric.net chuck@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.javertising.com ________________________________________ Author, Mastering XSLT, Sybex Books Co-Author, Mastering XML, Premium Edition, Sybex Books XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
